In the event of fire make sure you adhere to the following procedure:

Evacuate the area immediately

Get out of the property as safely and quickly as possible

Raise the alarm – let your neighbours know that there is a fire in the vicinity Phone 999 and ask for the Fire Brigade. Follow the operator’s instructions and do not hang up before they have confirmed your address.

Property Inspections

As part of our aftercare services we carry out regular property inspections either with Local Authority inspectors or without.

We make a great effort to ensure that these inspections are carried out at a time that is convenient to you and with the least amount of inconvenience. We always try to carry them out during office hours and when you will be at the property.

These inspections are important because they allow us to keep in touch with you and be made aware of any issues that you may be having at the property. They are also vital to us in maintaining the condition of the property.

These regular inspections will allow us to identify any potential health and safety issues and to be clear about any changes to your living conditions.

You will be advised of these inspections in advance apart from in exceptional circumstances.

Please make sure that you ask for identification before allowing anyone to enter the property. All of our inspection officers carry ID and will be more than happy to show it to you.
